 <\/p>\n

2. according to<\/span>\u00a0(a) a recent study, an increasing number of people in their 30\u2019s\u00a0choose<\/span>\u00a0(b) to remain single, a finding that<\/span>\u00a0(c), despite reports to the contrary <\/span>(d), \u00a0suggest <\/span>(e)\u00a0that fewer<\/span>\u00a0(f) people plan to have children. no error.<\/span>\u00a0(g)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. beaming satellite images from<\/span>\u00a0(a) jupiter, a planet notoriously difficult<\/span>\u00a0(b) to\u00a0photograph, was<\/span>\u00a0(c) a remarkable feat for a team of scientists, who, for the first\u00a0time ever,<\/span>\u00a0(d)\u00a0were<\/span>\u00a0(e) able to depict parts of the planet\u2019s atmosphere that were<\/span>\u00a0(f)\u00a0\u00a0hitherto<\/span>\u00a0(g) unknown. no error.<\/span>\u00a0(h)<\/p>\n
